1983: From Land Sharing to Household Ownership

"General manager, this is the big cruise ship you want. The final decoration has been completed, and it was officially launched yesterday for sea trials, and no problems were found."

In the No. 16 dock of Qinglong Bay Shipyard, at the junction with a Grand Canal, Xie Limin pointed to two large snow-white three-story cruise ships floating in the Grand Canal.

The No. 16 to No. 18 docks here are used to build small and medium-sized boats and riverboats.

Dock No. 16 can build three riverboats at the same time, and there is a gate connected to a grand canal beside the dock.

The dock here has achieved a high degree of automation. When the ship is launched, just use a high-power high-pressure water pump to inject a large amount of river water into the dock where the single riverboat that has been built is located.

Then, with the evacuation of the movable berth support, the ship floated on the water, opened the lock, and sailed along the current into the Grand Canal ahead.

Although these two large cruise ships are only three stories high, they are thirty-three meters long and nine meters nine wide.

Except that it is a flat-bottomed boat, it looks like a large dragon boat of the Sui Dynasty.

The biggest difference is that they are not made of wood, but made of special marine steel and special plastic steel.

They are sister ships, built exactly alike.

When designing, Wang Qiang and Chang'e unanimously chose the dragon boat that Yang Guang took when he went to the south of the Yangtze River as the main shape, and then optimized it in many aspects.

Therefore, the appearance of these two completed inland river cruise ships is very similar to the dragon boat that Yang Guang went to Jiangnan, but the interior is very modern.

Since the three-story boat building is on deck, it is well designed.

It is actually a three-storey luxury hotel floating on the water. Basically, it has all the functions of a star hotel, and it is a luxury version.

Most of the decoration materials are still the company's unique new plastic steel and special glass, plus the company's unique snow-white magic paint, which looks extremely neat and beautiful.

These two yachts are driven by the electric power of the new battery pack. Once fully charged, they can sail for 3,000 kilometers, and can easily reach the next city along the way for recharging.

In the future, the company's inland river vessels will eliminate all fuel-fueled vessels and use electric power to avoid environmental pollution and damage to the ecological environment of the Grand Canal.

Nowadays, charging piles have been built beside the big piers along the way of every Grand Canal, which can be charged around the clock.

All new riverboats are equipped with fast charging electronic equipment, and only need to charge for three hours.

Moreover, charging piles and new ships have charging protection functions. When the battery is fully charged, the power will be automatically cut off, which is very safe and convenient.

The same is true in all major seaside cities now. A large number of charging piles have been built in all directions, and almost all parking lots have them.

Whether it is a private car or a company-owned car, there is no need to pay.

This is because the company's electricity is simply inexhaustible, and it is regarded as everyone's welfare.

However, Chang'e has formulated strict regulations on safe use of electricity. Once violated, corresponding penalties will be imposed immediately depending on the seriousness of the circumstances.

Serious violations may result in disqualification from driving or sailing, or even expulsion or expulsion.

"Well, Chen Yingchun, Liu Jie, Deng Mengying, let's go up and have a look."

He Lizhen said to several core managers of the company around her.

"Okay, let's get on the boat and have a look."...

Everyone agreed.

After a while, they will ask people to drive the two yachts away to store various supplies.

Today is April 2nd, 1987, and the Ching Ming Festival will be three days later. The time we agreed to travel will soon be here.

All the people traveling this time, together with Wang Qiang, did not have twenty people, only sixteen people.

Ordinary people will not come from uninteresting applications.

One of the purposes of this trip is to inspect the specific conditions of the Grand Canal and various coastal cities, and to see the scenery of the African continent, which serves multiple purposes.

Except for He Lizhen who will bring four secretaries, the rest are managers and supervisors of a department, and there are no idlers.

These two inland river cruise ships are equipped with automatic driving systems and do not require humans to drive them.

Because the time for this trip is long enough, a lot of things need to be prepared.

Especially those large refrigerators and large freezers installed on cruise ships must be filled with all kinds of food.

Even the company's dedicated automatic charging car should be brought with it, so that during this trip, there is no need to worry about the problem of satellite communication watches and computers running out of power.

Otherwise, once the power is out of use outside, the consequences will be irreparable.

After all, the dozen or so of them are the absolute core executives of the company, in charge of all aspects of the company's work, and work remotely every day.

Even the company's luxury pickup trucks have to be brought on board to make the inspection along the prairie go smoothly without delaying time.

Since He Lizhen and the core management personnel of these companies want to experiment with mobile office management, of course they will not stay on the cruise ship every day, and they will also go to the land to look around from time to time.

Therefore, they made a very comprehensive plan for this trip to experience the new remote mobile office mode.

"Everyone follow me."

Xie Limin said to He Lizhen and the others.

Then, he led everyone to detour along the road next to the dock, and came outside the ship lock. Two large cruise ships were quietly floating in the middle of the Grand Canal, with movable retractable decks, and they were built on the pier on the river bank.

A group of people walked onto the big pier, walked along the sturdy and exquisite movable deck, and stepped onto a large cruise ship.

First of all, everyone circled a large circle on the unobstructed side of the ship with no dead ends at 360 degrees.

On the deck, except that the deck is made of special alloy steel, the sides and railings are all made of special plastic steel, which is light, beautiful and strong.

Any ship of the company is lighter than ships of the same size. A large part of the reason is because of the company's unique plastic steel materials with extremely high strength and toughness.

This makes it possible to carry out interior decoration as much as possible without affecting the speed of the ship while reducing a lot of the ship's own weight.

In the construction of a ship, materials, dead weight and marine engines are definitely the three most critical factors.

Once the three aspects have reached the leading level, the obstacles to building advanced ships will basically disappear.

"The shape of this faucet is really beautiful!"

"That's right! I've never seen a dragon boat in the style of an ancient building, and now I realize it's so beautiful."

"However, this big cruise ship is made of special alloy metal, special plastic steel, and special glass as the main building materials. Compared with the ancient building boat-style dragon boat, it is much stronger."

"However, in terms of the layout of the exterior, it is very similar to the ancient building boat style dragon boat, although it is not golden yellow but snow white."

"I heard that at first it was a completely antique golden hull design, but later the boss changed these two large cruise ships to snow white."...

Everyone looked around on this big tanker and talked a lot.

Without exception, it is a compliment to such a luxurious and exquisite cruise ship.

The interior decoration of the building boat cruise ship made them even more amazed: how is this still a riverboat? It is simply a luxurious three-story villa!

Indeed, because it is an inland riverboat and is used by the company's top management, Wang Qiang himself will probably use it frequently in the future. Of course, it must be designed and built to be comfortable.

Moreover, the layout of each floor is only 300 square meters, no matter how luxurious the design is, there is no difficulty in building it.

It is mainly constructed using special plastic steel, which is too easy to shape and weld.

Using the special plastic steel welding machine specially manufactured by the company, it is possible to complete the construction of the building on the three-story deck even within one day.

With fully mechanized construction, sufficient materials and labor, Xie Limin and his team only took three days to complete the construction of the main body of the two large ship-style cruise ships, even though they were already striving for perfection.

On the other hand, it took a month for the exquisite decoration and installation of equipment. Hundreds of experienced boatmen worked on the two luxury cruise ships meticulously, and the decoration was completed in strict accordance with the drawings.

After all, this is a special ship for the company's core executives, so no one dares to be careless, so it is natural to try to make it as good as possible.

He Lizhen took everyone to look carefully at the two large tankers, inside and out, and praised Xie Limin with satisfaction.

Xie Limin then activated the automatic driving mode of the two large oil tankers, and together with everyone, drove along the Grand Canal to Qinglong City.

The large oil tanker stopped at a large pier in the warehouse area of ​​the logistics department, and Xie Limin left immediately.

He also needs to return to the Qinglong Bay Shipyard as soon as possible to continue commanding everyone and carry out the construction of fifteen large ships.

This means that the two large inland river cruise ships have been officially delivered to the company's logistics department, and a task from the shipyard has also been completed.
